What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a completely natural state of mind and there is nothing strange or mysterious about it. In fact, most of us enter hypnosis several times a day without even recognising it: have you ever been taking your usual route in the car and suddenly realised that you haven’t noticed any familiar landmarks in the past few seconds, or even minutes? You’ve been in hypnosis. How often have you been watching TV only to realise suddenly that you’ve lost the plot? That’s hypnosis. Hypnosis happens when we focus on a single thought or idea to the exclusion of all else. It’s as simple as that.

It is in this state that the subconscious is open to giving up memories and emotions it has long suppressed, and accepting suggestions for beneficial change. Hypnosis is completely safe. Nobody can be made to say or do anything under hypnosis they wouldn’t say or do in a waking state. We are totally aware of our surroundings and ourselves during the process and we remember everything that happens during it.

We cannot get ‘stuck’ in hypnosis and we can bring ourselves out of it any moment we choose. We are always totally in control of ourselves. Hypnosis is an absolutely safe means of changing our lives for the better, or simply a very enjoyable way to relax completely. It has no unpleasant side effects.
